Hi, I have listed various websites in web directories like Yellow Pages and Co. But all with the same address and the same phone number. The pages are not intended to rank locally and do not have a Google Business Profile. Does this still pose a problem?

thanks & best regards,

Freddy
 
Having the same address and phone number across multiple directory listings isn’t really a big issue if you’re not trying to rank locally or build a Google Business Profile. The only thing to watch out for is user confusion if those listings look like different businesses but share the same details. Otherwise, it won’t hurt you from an SEO point of view.
 
If you don't do local SEO, that's fine, just keep your address and phone number consistent to avoid future problems.
 
If it is for local SEO purposes then you'll not get benefit from it for any of your website.. As NAP consistency is important in local SEO and address must be different for multiple businesses..
Rest if it is for other website, it's fine
 
If the pages aren't targeting local rankings and there's no GBP attached then consistent NAP details across directories is actually fine, consistency is good practice.

The only issue would be if you later create a GBP and the details don't match. That can cause confusion in Google's algorithm and hurt local rankings.
So for now no problem at all, just keep it in mind if you ever add a GBP in the future.
